How did Li Bai create the romantic road of poetry?

In the history of China's poetry development, poetry is mainly divided into two schools, which are distinguished by style. One is the romantic school represented by Li Bai, and the other is the realistic school represented by Du Fu. These two styles are the most common in the history of literature. Li Bai is not a pioneer of romantic poetry. On the basis of Qu Yuan, he continued to develop romanticism to the extreme. When Li Bai started his own romantic road, he added a lot of imagination and exaggerated metaphors in his poems, which was very different from Qu Yuan's romanticism.

1. Li Sao During the Warring States Period, Qu Yuan's Li Sao has always been regarded as the pioneering work of romantic style in the history of literature, because the literary image of vanilla beauty appeared for the first time in Li Sao, and Qu Yuan also used this literary image to decorate his whole poem more perfectly, so it has a romantic tendency. So as early as before Li Bai, the romantic style appeared, but it was not passed down because of Qu Yuan's death.

Second, the imagination is rich. In the Tang Dynasty, Li Bai was also called a poet, mainly because his achievements in poetry were unparalleled, and he also made a lot of efforts in romantic poetry. Li Bai's romanticism is very different from Qu Yuan's. Li Bai's romanticism is bolder and more imaginative than Qu Yuan's. Li Bai always adds many imaginative elements to his poems, which is a relatively novel way. Using some dreams or imagination can make romanticism more romantic.

Thirdly, the use of exaggeration in Li Bai's poems is not only imaginative, but also a rhetorical device he often uses. Some of Li Bai's poems are basically expressing his resentment. Stimulated by this feeling, his poems often exude a particularly bold feeling. In many of his poems, there are particularly bold descriptions of scenery, but these scenery do not make readers feel very scared, but feel very romantic. This is the power of Li Bai, and the romantic style has reached a new height in Li Bai's hands.
